The writing is awful... Acting is awful.. Cliche after cliche.. No originality.. Bad narrative.. Seems like they are more interested in pleasing the studio and fakebook.

La La Land was the best movie I've seen in years.

There is originality to be found, but you may have to look for it - often outside the multiplex or cable TV, often from abroad. Here is a very short list.
Incendies (Scorched) / Denis Villeneuve
Meek’s Cutoff / Kelly Reichardt
Rare Exports / Jalmari Helander
Margaret / Kenneth Lonergan
The Congress / Ari Folman
The Clouds Of Sils Maria / Olivier Assayas
Phoenix / Christian Petzold (my best picture of the decade, thus far)
Predestination / Michael and Peter Spierig
Neruda / Pablo Larrain
Tower / Keith Maitland

A few films I've enjoyed from the past 8 years that I think are pretty interesting and original.
Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives
The Turin Horse
Only God Forgives
Norte, the End of History
The Assassin
A Bride For Rip Van Winkle
A Ghost Story
mother!
